and your braille display.

Siri
With Siri, you can do things like opening apps just by asking, and VoiceOver can read Siri
responses to you. See Chapter 4,
Siri , on page 36.
Zoom
Many apps let you zoom in or out on specific items. For example, you can double-tap or pinch
to expand webpage columns in Safari. There’s also a Zoom accessibility feature that lets you
magnify the entire screen of any app you’re using. You can use Zoom together with VoiceOver.
Turn Zoom on or off. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom. Or use the Accessibility
Shortcut. See
Accessibility Shortcut on page 111.
